At his age I was working on farm, picking cotton, chores , feeding chickens, hogs . Wanted you all to see in the middle of the letter how soon they ask for cash. LOL
Ha! My granny and her 3 sisters grew up picking cotton. All generous ladies but tight with money. I knew better than to ask for money around the time I learned to write. Maybe it was my penmanship? Your grandson writes better than I do to this day.
Daughter called it Nick, Nack money and was left in the car. I told her how's he gonna buy tobbaco for his pipe ( gave him a small cob) if he don't have Nick Nack money. :rofl:
Are you kidding? I'm about to send him some money - that letter was great and I LOVED how he just slipped that request for money in there. Excellent technique!
